What is Nature in Monochrome about ?
Quite simply it's about showing that nature can be photographed in Monochrome (Black and White) and be interesting and creative and fun.
This is a virtual photographic exhibition open for all Monochrome photographers who photograph nature. The event is hosted by +Richard Pennells
Lets see your creative side :-)
_*Here are rules of entry*_ (do read this before entering your photo)
You can submit *1* photograph of nature in black and white
It can be toned but no selective colour
The photograph must be your own photograph not a reshare of another person's photograph
Any photograph I feel doesn't fit in with the guidelines will be removed from the gallery (there's more scroll down)
Use your imagination and be creative. (whenever you can)
Try and make your photograph unique
Your nature photographs must not contain any people but animals, wildlife insects etc are okay. Remember the emphasis is on nature, so your photograph reflect this in content.
Buildings and Man-made structures or machinery should not feature heavily in your photographs as the focus should be more on the nature
Think of the quality of the photograph you submit, choose wisely because this is your way of showcasing your photography.
_Optional requirements_
I encourage you write a description of your photograph in the comments and the reasons why you chose this particular subject, what interested you about it ?. Naming the photograph could also be useful in engaging your viewers. Also the other photographers I am sure would appreciate your words of encouragement and showing an interest so do browse the photographs submitted :-) and comment on their works
By commenting on the photographers works you will motivate them. Many of them put in a load of effort
Oh and try and submit what you think is your best work as you have a single entry
The end time of the event is 23.00 hours on the calendar day I have entered, so your entries must be submitted before then.
Thanks :-)
